Robert's Favorite Movies
A Matter of Life and Death (Stairway to Heaven)
PG
A life affirming film, that is not what is seems at first. Must be seen on the big screen to marvel at the largeness of the scale and themes, and all done a tiny budget compared to Hollywood films fims of the same time. Powell and Pressbergers best!

Nothing much happens, but from the beginning when I saw this in the seventies, I was drawn into the beautiful and perfectly paced film. The making of is fun too. Watching Sydney Pollack throw himself around showing Robert Redford how to do a stunt, shows how committed they were. Way ahead of its time, yet timeless. Thank you for making this guys.
